Irl or on here?Brothers of the coli, do y’all lend an ear to your bros who may be dealing with something?
I understand...Sometimes i think ppl need to just vent as well.I talk to my bros but the difference between men and women is that when a man wants to talk about what he's going through, he's not trying to download his negative feelings onto you, he's looking for advice, encouragement or an activity to distract him.
Women get mad at you if youre offering advice. They want to talk just to talk so I've gotten adept at asking early on "what is it that you think you need right now?" When they tell me about their problem.
First instinct is always to solve the problem but they want to talk until they feel like its no longer something on their mind or they want to get into an argument with you to distract them from their pain. I just ask them "what do you think you need right now?" And if they say "I don't know" then I just say "your answers will come in time" and stay silent. They usually change the topic afterwards. Thats just my experience.
Even when you vent to someone what are they really going to do to fix your situation? 9/10 they are just going to run their mouth about it to a bunch of people that you didn't want in your business....who also can't/won't do a damn thing to help you
Hmm…I talk to my bros but the difference between men and women is that when a man wants to talk about what he's going through, he's not trying to download his negative feelings onto you, he's looking for advice, encouragement or an activity to distract him.

The only woman that will ever sincerely care about your feelings are your mother and grandmother, and most of the time they will be the ones to tell you to toughen up.Hmm…
I don’t think I would ever listen to women talk about their problems and shyt.
Just knowing I couldn’t do the same without them holding shyt over my head to use when we fall out is a serious double standard for me

nikkas keep getting tripped up thinking they can come to their girl and reveal their insecurities. You can only talk to them about flaws that wouldn't bother you if they got out e.g. being worried that all women want you for is sex, thinking you work too hard, being worried that you'll never be able to own more than one house. E.g. 'problems' that make you look good.
Women like the idea of a vulnerable man more than the reality. In my experience I've seen it happen to me and other men where we open up and then women lose respect and the 'spark' is gone. Most women not prepared to actually deal with the problems men disclose to them.
